Sonder Demo Bikes & Demo Days

What could be better than trying a new bike on some of the best trails in the UK?

 

This summer, join us from our stores and favourite trail centres around the country and try our amazing fleet of Sonder bikes. You'll get a proper ride on any bike you choose and we've got every bike in every size available to book.

 

It's totally free. Just bring your shoes and helmet. And even if you don't want to ride just come over, grab a brew and talk bikes with us.

 

Email each store directly to book your bike. Simply let them know which bike and what size you want to try and then turn up from 10.30am on the day. You can find full details of each demo day below.

 

See you on the trail…
